Hidden Garden, Vigan


Hidden Garden is perfect for plant lovers. They have a huge collection of locally grown and imported plants for sale. In addition to the plants, they sell clay pots, souvenir items, Ilocos vinegar, etc. They also have a restaurant—dining here will bring you closer to nature. There are lots of plants and flowers everywhere. I want to have a garden like this one!
     

I only took photos of plants that caught my interest.

Variety of Pakpak Lawin
I could have bought one of these if it were cheap. It caught my attention because the leaves are crumpled, compared to an ordinary Pakpak Lawin plant with smooth leaves. The smallest size of this plant costs P500-600.

We enjoy looking inside this garden because we are plant lovers.  I can't blame those who feel bored walking around the plants on display.  We all have different interests. If you dislike looking for plants, stay at their restaurant and have a snack.  I found it very pleasant because of the garden setup.  We tried the Vigan empanada here.  We had fresh fruit shakes and fresh buko juice still in the coconut shell - refreshing.

Female restroom:

They have a very unique restroom. The wall is glass, and you can see plants outside. It felt like peeing in the middle of the forest, and I am afraid someone might sneak a peek inside, but I still like the idea anyway.
